Smaller chassis, weaker armour. Didn't take much actually.
Oh and various cosmetic parts.

1942
Yep. Functions like the original. Only fun sized. Trying to figure out how to make it be able to self right consistantly.
I think the original Complete Control was 2 rad in game aswell. So if anything it's faster.

One idea for NQRW:


Only problem it has is that it has a tendancy to flip itself over.
Plus it has to have Rad drive.

I have now developed a hatrid of multi extenders.

Well, the outcome of this isn't exactly surprising.

In which case you'll love the preliminary stages for Home & Away.

1) Imitation is the most sincere form of flattery.
2) Roboleague doesn't have pools?

I never really cared for Pussycat. It just... Bugs me

The idea that he always landed on his .... paws.... was cool though.

Yeah. It definitley was unique. I also hated Diotor. It was just silly. Why would you put Fur on a robot when you KNOW it will be put in a arena with flames?
FOR FUN.
THAT IS WHY THIS SPORT EXISTS.
This. Hence why if I ever do get around to learning how to build a robot, it shall be painted in bright colours and have a smiley face on the front.
 
I always liked the teams that had some sort of gimmick, like Nemesis, Plunderbird, Sir Chromalot, even Robochicken. They brought such a lot of fun to the sport, I would love for that aspect of it to be brought back.

Didn't Diotoir get hit by a no fur rule or something eventually?

And I think RR is just finding the most tenuous reasons he can for not liking as many robots as humanly possible.

At a completely basic level, pretty much.
Anyway, I would say #1 is my favourite.

Btw guys... Why Razer did not enter to Season 7? o_o

Found this, this might be it.

Quote
"There was also an incident during the European Championship filmed as part of the 2nd UK Extreme series which went a long way to helping me make this difficult decision [quitting the Razer team].

During our fight with Tornado we were immobile and had held on with the claw for far, far longer than the permitted one minute and should have been disqualified or counted out. We were then shockingly given a judges' decision which was never ours, and both myself and Simon immediately wanted to hand it back to Tornado.

Ian, as team captain, refused and a long discussion was needed to resolve matters. When I pointed out that a democratic team vote would mean that we should hand the match back I was told by Ian "You didn't build the machine so your vote doesn't count". After giving so much of my life to the team you can probably understand I was more than a little miffed at that comment! Also, the matter had nothing to do with machine construction as it was all down to our honour and integrity, and I believe I had as much a say in that as Ian and Simon.

Ian eventually relented the following morning, but refused to be part of the filming when we handed the match back to Tornado. I considered this to be a little hypocritical from someone who in previous series had stated to camera 'we're an honorable team'. It was also a clear indication of how much Ian hates losing. I gave him the benefit of the doubt for storming out after the Pussycat fight in Series 4, but this second show of what can only be described as petulance was too much for me. A seed of doubt had been planted in my mind and several months later it bore fruit in the shape of my decision to retire.

This may sound a little ungrateful to some but it is the truth of the matter, and inspite of this I will always be thankful for all the truly wonderful moments that Ian and Simon gave me the chance to experience. I would also like to take this opportunity to thank the other roboteers, the film crews and most importantly of all the multitude of fans that have given me such great memories during my time as a roboteer. I do miss you all!"

Just to stop this from turning into the TAN appreciation club (Of which I would be a proud member)

I think the reason I didn't like Razer is because it was almost too perfect. If that makes any sense. If a robot faced Razer 9/10 times you could tell which way the match would go. Don't get me wrong, it was a marvel of engineering and thing of beauty. But still.

@Zog It's supposed to be the medic from TF2. If it looks like Elvis then i've failed as a human being.

I'll AI Garvin's if you don't want Avalanche to, which is understandable.

Updated, so now it has wheel protection and more hammers.


I accidently set the outside spinners to spin in the opposite direction to the inside spinners. This actually works to my advantage as it doesn't try and flip itself over while turning.

The bottom support is still stuck in the floor in the garage though.
